“We live in a fast-paced world. Because of this, we fail to notice many things. For a change, try to take it slow today. As you go through your day, take time out to count your blessings. One by one, thank God for the the blessings that come your way. You will be amazed by how blessed you truly are.”
Here's a praise Psalm revised by the author of the book I'm currently reading.
Praise the Lord.
Praise God in the glorious sunshine.
Praise Him in the freezing drizzle.
Praise Him as you drive to church.
Praise Him as you drive to the dentist.
Praise Him in the checkout line;
Praise Him in freeway traffic.
Praise God on the job;
Praise Him on vacation.
Praise Him on payday and as you make the house payment.
Praise God when you open your eyes in the morning;
Praise Him when you can't shut them at night.
Praise Him for take-out food and elegant dinners.
Praise Him for computers and Email.
Praise God when you're 13.
Praise Him when you're 93.
Praise Him in the racket of a family gathering.
Praise Him in the quietness of a lonely room.
Praise God on the CD player and the car stereo;
Praise Him with your heart and voice--
Or in silence.
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.
God gave us a gift of 86, 400 seconds today. Have you used one to say "Thank you'?"
